Velvet curtains have a luxuriant, rich look and they are heavy which is great for keeping the light out and the heat in. Velvet refers to the soft, furry covering on deer's antlers and velvet-effect material is produced from woven fabrics made with cotton or man-made fibers such as polyester. Velvet has a soft, deep pile which feels almost furry when you brush hand over it and gives depth and richness to the color with strong contrast between light and dark. Velvet curtains are ideal for bedrooms as they do keep the room completely dark when they are drawn.

The painting that is coupled with this lovely flower arrangement is "Caroline de Bassano, Marquise d'Espeuilles" by John Singer Sargent, 1884. The flower arrangement reflects the painting nicely, I think, echoing the blues and the whites of the clothing, the flowers in the hair and at the bodice of Mme. de Bassano, as well as her delicate pink complexion. The full arrangement is even more representative, with its long slim vase (created by stuffing satin material into a glass vase) and brown velvet drape at the bottom of the vase (the full arrangement is shown next).
